Putting X windows and pointers to MetaWindows into a union had a number of
problems:
- It caused awkward initialization and conditionalization
- There was no way to refer to Wayland windows (represented by
MetaWindow *) in the past, which is necessary for the MetaStackTracker
algorithms
- We never even cleaned up old MetaStackWindow so there could be
records in MetaStackWindow pointing to freed MetaWindow.
Replace MetaStackWindow with a 64-bit "stack ID" which is:
- The XID for X Windows
- a "window stamp" for Wayland windows - window stamps are assigned
for all MetaWindow and are unique across the life of the process.

The existing workspace management code is quite hairy, with plenty of
logic inline in all of window.c, workspace.c, and screen.c, making it
hard to understand or make changes to, since you might forget to change
several of the other places the code was around.
Rewrite the internal workspace management logic so that it's
centralized and all in window.c. Document the invariants we need to
maintain, and ensure that these invariants are properly kept, with
asserts in various places.
Extensive testing on gnome-shell did not bring up any issues, and this
is a considerable cleanup.
Instead of returning a value based on whether or not we handled it, we
have this logic: either we have taken a grab on the window, in which
case we have a grab op and have handled it ourselves, or we did not take
a grab and *need* to replay the event to the window.
Handle this in events.c by checking the grab operation in the same way
that we check the other grab ops.
This code was supposed to refresh our default icons when the theme
changed, but it actually was a no-op, since the default icons are cached
in a static variable in MetaUI.
I'm not sure the fact that the fallback icons don't update when the
theme changes is an important enough use case to keep working, but I'm
keeping the skeleton function there in case somebody wants to actually
fix it properly.
The output_id is more of an opaque identifier for the monitor, based on
its underlying ID from the windowing system. Since we also use the term
"output_id" for the output's index, rename our use of the opaque cookie
"output_id" to "winsys_id".
When workspaces-only-on-primary is set and a window is moved back to the
primary, we also move it to the active workspace to avoid the confusion
of a visible window suddenly disappearing when crossing the monitor border.
However when the window is not actually moved by the user, preserving the
workspace makes more sense - we already do this in some cases (e.g. when
moving between primary monitors), but miss others (unplugging the previous
monitor); just add an explicit user_op parameter as used elsewhere to cover
all exceptions.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=731760
Remember the last monitor a window was moved to by user action and
try to move it back on monitor changes; this should match user
expectations much better when a monitor is unplugged temporarily.

Rather than calculate it speculatively with the current properties
which may be too new or too out of date, make sure it always fits
with the proper definition. We update it when we update the toplevel
window for X11, and when a Wayland surface is committed with a newly
attached buffer.
When opening the window menu without an associated control - e.g.
by right-clicking the titlebar or by keyboard - using coordinates
for the menu position is appropriate. However when the menu is
associated with a window button, the expected behavior in the
shell can be implemented much easier with the full button geometry:
the menu will point to the center of the button's bottom edge
rather than align to the left/right side of the titlebar as it
does now, and the clickable area where a release event does not
dismiss the menu will match the actual clickable area in mutter.
So add an additional show_window_menu_for_rect() function and
use it when opening the menu from a button.

For Wayland, we want to have everything possible in terms of the frame
rect, or "window geometry" as the Wayland protocol calls it, in order
to properly eliminate some flashing when changing states to fullscreen
or similar.
For this, we need to heavily refactor how the code is structured, and
make it so that meta_window_move_resize_internal is specified in terms
of the frame rect coordinate space, and transforming all entry points
to meta_window_move_resize_internal.
This is a big commit that's hard to tear apart. I tried to split it
as best I can, but there's still just a large amount of changes that
need to happen at once.
Expect some regressions from this. Sorry for any temporary regression
that this might cause.
The last commit added support for the "appmenu" button in decorations,
but didn't actually implement it. Add a new MetaWindowMenuType parameter
to the show_window_menu () functions and use it to ask the compositor
to display the app menu when the new button is activated.

The requested_rect is a strange name for it, because it's not actually
the rect that the user or client requested all the time: in the case of
a simple move or a simple resize, we calculate some of the fields
ourselves.
To the MetaWindow subclass implementations, it just means "the rect
before we constrained it", so just use the name unconstrained_rect.
This also makes it match the name of the MetaWindow field.
It looks weird to have Alt+Space pop up under the cursor instead
of the top-left corner of the window, and the Wayland request will
pass through the coordinates as well.
Add it to the compositor interface, and extend the
_GTK_SHOW_WINDOW_MENU ClientMessage to support it as well.
Realistically, the user rect contains the unconstrained window
rectangle coordinates that we want to be displaying, in case
something in the constraints change.
Rename it to the "unconstrained_rect", and change the code to always
save it, regardless of current state.
When metacity was originally being built, the purpose of the user
rect was a lot less clear. The code only saved it on user actions,
with various other calls to save_user_window_placement() and a force
mechanism sprinkled in to avoid windows being snapped back to odd
places when constraints changed.
This could lead to odd bugs. For instance, if the user uses some
extension which automatically tiles windows and didn't pass
user_action=TRUE, and then the struts changed, the window would be
placed back at the last place a user moved it to, rather than where
the window was tiled to.
The META_IS_USER_ACTION flag is still used in the constraints code
to determine whether we should allow shoving windows offscreen, so
we can't remove it completely, but we should think about splitting
out the constrainment policies it commands for a bit more
fine-grained control.

It's been long enough. We can mandate support for these, at least
at build-time. The code doesn't actually compile without either
of these, so just consider that unsupported.
dx/dy should be against the regular window's rect, and need to
be ignored when we're resizing. Instead, we use gravity to anchor
the window's new rectangle when resizing.
Except while reading _NET_WM_WINDOW_OPACITY, opacity is between 0 and 255. With
guint8, we'll get compiler warnings if arbitrary int values are passed.

Really, visible_to_compositor means that the window is shown, e.g.
not minimized. We need to be using a boolean tracking whether we've
called meta_compositor_add_window / meta_compositor_remove_window.
This fixes a jump during window placement when a window appears.
This is fairly simple and basic for now, with just skip_taskbar /
skip_pager, but eventually a lot of "WM policy" like this, including
move-resize, will be in subclasses for each individual surface.
We try to exempt CSD windows from being forced fullscreen if they are
undecorated and the size of the screen; however, we also catch almost
all windows that *do* need to be forced fullscreen in this check, since
they also have decorations turned off.
Identify actual CSD windows by checking whether _GTK_FRAME_EXTENTS is set -
GTK+ will always set this on CSD windows even if they have no invisible
borders or shadows at the current time.
We explicitly turn off the legacy-fullscreen check for native wayland windows
so we don't start legacy-fullscreening them if the new
meta_window_is_client_decorated() is later made more accurate.

I implemented pinging, but never actually enabled the feature
properly on Wayland surfaces by setting the net_wm_ping hint to
TRUE, causing the fallback path to always be hit.
Rename net_wm_ping to can_ping so it doesn't take on an
implementation-specific meaning, and set it for all Wayland windows.
This was a bad idea, as ping/pong has moved to a client-specific
request/event pair, rather than a surface-specific one. Revert
the changes we made here and correct the code to make up for it.
This reverts commit aa3643cdde.
The goal here is to make MetaWindow represent a toplevel, managed window,
regardless of if it's X11 or Wayland, and build an abstraction layer up.
Right now, most of the X11 code is in core/ and the wayland code in wayland/,
but in the future, I want to move a lot of the X11 code to a new toplevel, x11/.
The compositor code used to handle X windows that didn't have a
corresponding MetaWindow (see commit d538690b), which is why the
attribute query is separated.
As that doesn't happen any more, we can clean up. No functional changes.
Suggested by Owen Taylor.

Do this by duplicating the current code and porting it to use
X again. A better approach would involve our own event structures,
and I really don't want to do that right now. We can clean this up
later.
We require a MetaWindow to properly implement some of the requests
for xdg_surface, so add a way to have an unmapped MetaWindow that
we can store properties on, that we later map when the client
attaches a buffer...
Cache the computed border size so we can fetch the border size at
any time without worrying that we'll be spending too much time in
the theme code (in some cases we might allocate a PangoFontDescription
or do other significant work.)
The main effort here is clearing the cache when various bits of window
state change that could potentially affect the computed borders.

There is now a meta_display_handle_event alongside the
meta_display_handle_xevent function which handles events in terms of
Clutter events instead of X events. A Clutter event filter is
registered so that all Clutter events will pass through this function.
The pointer event handling code from the X event version has been moved
into this new function and has been modified to use the details from
the Clutter event instead of the X event. This is a step towards
moving all of the event handling code over to use Clutter events.
